Rules of ., (CNS) The de pression has caused a temporary halt in the fight of the salary committee of the Buckingham County Colored Teacher’s Assoc iation for an increase in salary of the Negro teachers of Virginia. Thomas L. Dabney, chairman of the committee states however that the committee will not abandon its efforts for an eventual increase A petition drafted some months ago and signed by more than 2.000 teachers will not be pres ented to State educational Auth orities until the time is more fav orable for salary increases. The movement began in Buck ingham Connty in March 1931. The original plan sponosred by th« County Colored Teacher’s Assoc iation was to get, the Buckingham County school board to set up a systematic sal*ry scale for Negro teachers with gradual increases in stead of leaving the scale of pay to the discretion of the clerk of the board as has been the custom theretofore. When it was discov ered that County boards were in clined to shift the responsibility for salary arrangement for Negro teachers on the State board of ed ucation, the Buckingham County Colored Teacher’s Association de cided to make the movement State wide, and include urban as well as rural teachers in its efforts.

"A GENTLEMAN IN A BLACK SKIN” 'by Donna McKay (William Faro, Inc., New York) • • # Suzanne Dale is the daughter of rich white parents, and her wid owed father permits her the free dom of maintaining a studio in gay New York and she makes somewhat of a reputation as a sculptress. For one of her statu es. which bears the title of the book, she employs Paul Johnson as a model. • • * Paul is a mulatto. Tall, well de veloped, good looking and a grace ful and expert dancer and enter tainer in one of Harlem’s swanky cabarets. His physique attracts the attention of a great many women and the constant close and intimate contact between the art ist and the model develops into an affair. • • • However, on one occasion Suz anne, while in her "cups” marries Paul and thus her romance stretches from an "affair” which according to her standards, and those of her friends, could be tol erated, into a very serious condi tion of life which, neither herself or friends, care to publicly admit. • * • In her sober moments, Suzanne stipulates a series of conditions which Paul must live up to before she will consent to live with him as a wife. Paul not only accepts the conditions but attempts to carry them out and in this he is indirectly aided ljv Suzanne’s own brother, Tony, who has some effeminate ways and who, also, becomes enamored over Paul’s ro bust physical form. • • • With the above as a setting you can well imagine the constatnt in terest the story has on the reader T Clifford C. Mitchell. ..Read the..... Omaha Guide I
